What are your favourite things to do in London?

[Theda13]

My DP and I are booking a trip to London for a big birthday (mine). We’ll be staying for a few days.

I’d definitely like to go to the Ritz for afternoon tea and the National Portrait Gallery. Maybe a show too, but not sure which one.

Any other ideas?

Thank you all for your recommendations. We had the most perfect weekend. We did:

Day 1:

Sir John Soane’s Museum
Dishoom
Larry’s for cocktails
Phantom of the Opera show

Day 2:

The National Gallery
National Portrait Gallery
Claridge’s for Afternoon Tea (so glad we didn’t book the Ritz!)
